The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 837 The Non-Believer

"Me, scared? Ha!"

Jax let out a more dismissive laugh and confidently declared, "I don't believe there are any ghosts here. If there really are, and they dare appear in front of me, I could smack them out of existence with one slap.”

"Jax, don't boast. If you really run into a ghost, forget about slapping it; you'll be lucky if you don't wet your pants. If you have a torch, you could at least scare it off a bit.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Without a torch, you'll be helpless, like a scaredy-cat in front of the ghost. It can scare you as much as it wants. It can punish you however it likes." "Daniel, cut the scare tactics. I don't believe a word of it! There's no way ghosts exist. Even if they did, why should I be afraid? I've never done anything bad in my life! Even if there are ghosts, I doubt they can harm me. I'm not scared of them. I've been a good person my whole life, why should I be afraid?"

Daniel couldn't help but chuckle, "Heh."

Then, still amused, he asked, "Jax, really, you've never done anything bad?"

The question caught Jax off guard for a moment. But he quickly regained his composure and firmly stated, "Nope! Not a single bad thing!" "Jax, your wife isn't here. You can be honest. She's not around, so there's no need to play the good guy," Daniel said with a teasing tone. Jax's heart skipped a beat. Daniel had hit a nerve.

"Daniel, my wife not being here doesn't change the facts. I haven't done anything wrong, I already told you!"

"Jax, let me tell you, I'm a fortune teller. I can see right through you. I know you've done bad things, and you've wronged your wife." "Nonsense, I haven't."

"Really? You haven't? What about that night with your first love? The morning after, you both agreed to forget each other because you both had families of your own."

Jax was stunned. How could Daniel know about that? Only he and his first love knew. There was no third person.

Even though Daniel had hit the mark, Jax couldn't admit it. "Daniel, stop spouting lies. What you said never happened! I don't have a first love. I've only ever been in love with my wife!"

"Jax, a man needs to be honest. Only a straightforward man is upright and won't be afraid of ghosts. By denying what you've done, you're being dishonest. Such dishonesty will make you a target for ghosts, especially female ones."
